Isn't it more like $20 or whatever the difference is between the regular version and this special edition? Still kind of dumb, but at least it is a bit more reasonable.

Why western people seldom use "please"? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] yads@lemmy.ca 23 points 4 months ago

People say it in person a lot. Another factor might be that some people view it coming across as either non genuine or passive aggressive in written form.

This is likely a class action lawsuit waiting to happen.

Hopefully their audit is correct and no valuable data was actually stolen

Thanks for sharing this. Going to try it out. I honestly haven't had as much of an issue with Google search lately, but willing to try something new.

People born on Leap Day, do you celebrate your birthday on February 28th, February 29th, or March 1st? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] yads@lemmy.ca 10 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Think about what your age is on Feb 28 and March 1 on non leap years.

Well written and engaging. Thanks for sharing

4 million Canadians have a criminal record. Companies not hiring them are missing out, say advocates in c/canada@lemmy.ca
[–] yads@lemmy.ca 5 points 9 months ago

Absolutely, there's a reason people become career criminals. If we remove any opportunities to make money legally people will turn back to criminal ways to make money.

10% off a non goldpack eligible pack is unacceptable

14-0 Alchemy Wrenn and Realmbreaker deck (mstdn.ca)
 

Just went on a 14-0 run into mythic with this sweet #alchemy Wrenn the Realmbreaker deck on #mtgarena.

I haven't found a single matchup that has felt hard and post board this deck feels unbeatable against most decks.

The flex slots are the 1 ofs and the weakest card is likely the Tyvar, but I have not drawn that card enough to really have an opinion about it. The synergy between the Wrenn -2 and Virtue of Persistence/Porcine Portent is huge. Being able to downtick on your 3 mana planeswalker and be able to dig 3 cards deep for removal is absolutely insane. It has won me several games with being able to find removal for a Sheoldred when my Clock was about to tick to 12. Additionally being able to power up your creature lands with the +1 is absolutely insane. Not many decks are running planeswalker removal especially mainboard that a turn 3 Wrenn (which admittedly with the mana base is sometimes hard to power out) can be absolutely unbeatable.

Cautionary tale about not having a mortgage in retirement (www.cbc.ca)
 

I feel for this guy, but something isn't adding up.

  • he has lived in this house for 3 decades
  • his mortgage is still so high, that the recent interest rate hikes have taken his mortgage payments from $1K to $2.6K

Sneaky Alchemy/Historic updates (lemmy.ca)
 

Looks like they banned Fable in Alchemy ahead of rotation and Nerfed Crucias to a 3/1. Seems like a big change for both formats. Crucias now dies to Bowmasters. Will we continue to see rakdos dominate both formats?

Is sorting by Hot still bugged? (lemmy.ca)
 

I know this isn't likely specific to lemmy.ca, but is sorting by Hot super bugged? The first page of results are fine, but then the 2nd page is only posts from a random community from years ago
